Abstract: A device is provided. The device includes a processor, a screen, and a memory including an application configured to record, transmit, receive, play, display, and group visual messages. Visual messages include a video, a snapshot, a reference to the video or snapshot, a drawing, audio content, a reference to the drawing or audio content, and a timestamp, a time reference within the video, a Global Positioning System coordinate, a user ID, a participant ID, or a reference to the timestamp, GPS coordinate, user ID, and participant ID. The application displays and maintains drawings on the screen for an amount of time not related to a duration of a video. The video and snapshot are recorded as part of an original video or snapshot visual message, and the drawing and audio content are not embedded in the video or the snapshot and are recorded as part of the visual message.

Abstract: A method for compiling experience ratings for service providers includes receiving a rating of a communication service provided by the service provider from a user of the communication service. The rating has a geographic location and a time associated therewith. The geographic map is updated with the rating that was received from the user.

Abstract: A method of non-invasive estimation of round trip time (RTT) between a sender and receiver in a packet oriented acknowledgment based transmission system uses a probe to monitor signals transmitted between the sender and receiver at any point in the transmission system. For a presetable number of acknowledgments in a sequence of acknowledgments received by the probe within a time interval, the time stamps of the acknowledgments are compared (i) with the timestamps of the packets received before the acknowledgments to determine an estimated value for the round trip time between the probe and receiver, and (ii) with the timestamps of the packets received after the acknowledgments to determine an estimated value for the round trip time between the probe and sender. Also sequence numbers of the same group of acknowledgments are compared with the packets encountered to perform a distance function along the sequence numbers themselves.

Abstract: A monitoring device monitors signaling information on data links of a telecommunication network. The monitoring device also monitors user traffic on voice links of the telecommunication network. From the signaling information and user traffic a measure of user perception quality is derived.
